Slip/Trip & Fall
Ventura County Premise Liability Attorney
Slip, Trip and Fall Accidents
Slip, trip, and fall accidents can happen to anyone, anywhere. When an individual slips, trips, or falls because of unsafe or poorly maintained property conditions, he or she has the legal right to receive damages for any injuries that were sustained. Property owners, including the city as it relates to sidewalks and streets, are legally responsible for ensuring their premises are safe, and free of any hazards or potentially dangerous conditions.
Slip, trip, and fall accidents occur for a number of reasons, including:
- Uneven City Sidewalks
- Poor lighting
- Slippery floors
- Failure to post warning signs
- Failure to repair or maintain the property
- Broken stairs and railings
- Ratted carpet
- Crowded floors
- Uneven walkways
- Falling objects
- Broken equipment (i.e. doors, elevators, escalators, etc.)
Just because an individual sustains an injury on another person’s property, does not mean he or she automatically will receive compensation. In order to file a successful lawsuit, the victim must prove the property owner not only knew of the hazard, but also acted negligently and is at fault. Stuart Sherman, Attorney at Law, has helped hundreds of clients obtain the compensation they deserve.
